Summer and winter Monarch Butterflies differ primarily in their behavior and physical characteristics. Summer monarchs are typically more vibrant in color and have a shorter lifespan, living for about 2-5 weeks, as they focus on reproduction. In contrast, winter monarchs, which migrate to warmer climates, enter a state of diapause, allowing them to survive for several months without mating, and they have a more subdued coloration. This adaptation helps them endure the long migration and harsh winter conditions.
